The Dangers of Radon: The Silent Assassin

Radon has no color or smell. There is absolutely nothing to alert you to any threat of danger.

It is one of the second highest cause of lung cancer worldwide, resulting in more than 20,000 deaths in the United States annually.

The primary dangers of radon is that it is potentially everywhere. It is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that is produced from the decay of radioactive elements – such as uranium – in the earth’s rocks and soil. Radon gas can also contaminate ground and well water.

For most people, the risk of radon exposure usually comes from where they live and depends on several factors.

The amount of uranium found in rocks and the soil beneath the place of residence.

Entry points for radon to enter the home such as cracks between concrete (usually found in the floor-to-wall junctions), gaps in tiles or the floor, small pores found in hollow-block walls, drains, and sump-pumps.

The exchange rate between indoor and outdoor air. Homes that are always sealed (a common occurrence in climates that are cold or hot year-round) tend to have higher levels of radon gas. Airing out a home allows outside air to dilute concentration.

Homes with poor ventilation or poorly sealed.

As a rule, radon gas levels are highest in the basement, cellars, or other parts of the home that come in direct contact with the soil.

When radon gas escapes into the air of the home, it breaks down into smaller radioactive particles. These particles latch on to aerosols, dusts, and other air-borne substances. When we breathe this contaminated air, these same particles enter into our lungs, are deposited into the cells lining our airways, and begin damaging DNA structure.

This damage, when unchecked, can ultimately lead to lung cancer.

Researchers have revealed that, while it is true elevated levels of radon can increase the chances of one developing lung cancer, a surprising number of people develop lung cancer despite concentration levels being in the low to middle range.

This could be because some people spend more time in their homes, where the danger of radon gas exposure is more likely. Radon gas is also the primary cause of lung cancer in non-smokers, and if the patient is a smoker, the risk of lung cancer is much higher.

Lower the Risk of Radon in Your Home

Block the passage of air from basements and cellars to the regular living floors by using a tightly sealed door between levels.

Increase under-floor ventilation.

Install a radon sump system in the basement.

Properly seal the floors and walls.

Install radon detectors in every zone of your home.

Ask your local water supply company for radon concentration in your location.

Have your home inspected for radon or test it yourself with an inexpensive kit.

These are just some of the things that we can do to reduce the risk of radon exposure for ourselves and loved ones right at home where the undetected gas is most damaging.

If Cancer Scares You, Do Not Miss This...

Over 20,000 people die each day from cancer. So if it scares you, that’s understandable.

However… whether you’re trying to avoid cancer or beat it if you’ve got it, there is one very powerful antidote to the fear, and to the disease itself: knowledge.

In “The Truth About Cancer: A Global Quest” you’ll discover the most powerful ways to prevent, treat, heal from, and beat the disease. Though you haven’t heard of most of these ways, you deserve to, so…

About Ty Bollinger

Ty Bollinger is a happily married husband, the father of four wonderful children, devoted Christian, best-selling author, medical researcher, talk radio host, health freedom advocate, former competitive bodybuilder and also a certified public accountant.After losing several family members to cancer (including his mother and father), Ty refused to accept the notion that chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery were the most effective treatments available for cancer patients. He began a quest to learn all he possibly could about alternative cancer treatments and the medical industry. Ty has now made it his life mission to share the most remarkable discovery he made on his quest: the vast majority of all diseases (including cancer) can be easily prevented and even cured without drugs or surgery.Ty speaks frequently to health groups, at seminars, expos, conferences, churches, and is a regular guest on multiple radio shows and writes for numerous magazines and websites. Speaking from personal experience and extensive research, Ty has touched the hearts and changed the lives of thousands of people around the world.

If it’s coming out of the ground, it will be everywhere there is ground nearby, meaning that the only place to get away from it might be on the ocean or living at the beach with an onshore airflow (unless now Fukushima has made that air just as dangerous).

My mom passed from lung cancer. She did hair in our basement for a number of years. Years later we found out about the lung cancer got the radon levels tested and they were high. She did the chemo and radiation which sucked because idk how to explain but simple way is to say “it cooked it like popcorn” made it spread and she passed with in four months.

Sucks because the doctors know how long basically she had to live because they see this happen a lot I assume. Also to keep her comfortable” the drugs for the pain I feel helped her pass. As weird as that sounds it’s crazy how easily one can be induced with drugs and no one knows how it’s slowly killing them from inside out. if I only could have her back. At least I’ll never to chemo or radiation. Keep ur ph levels right ppl!

I’m sorry to hear about your mother. One of the many doctors whose lectures I’ve listened to was saying, “And if you’re a hair dresser, don’t bother saving for retirement. You won’t need it. Just make sure your will is in order” (because of the cancer-causing chemicals hair dressers are constantly breathing and touching). Now after learning a lot (a thousand hours’ research in a year and a half) about cancer and the corrupt cancer industry, I beg people not to submit to destructive and counterproductive chemo and radiation, but instead to fix their diet, quit the toxins, and alkalize (going into a little more detail of course).
